Whether they're used in exhibition stands, retail displays, lightboxes or interior branding, accurately manufactured graphics help ensure every display performs as intended.

Bayeux Tapestry Replica | 70 Metres of History at Tewkesbury Abbey

With the original Bayeux Tapestry now on display at the British Museum, its extraordinary scale is attracting fresh attention.

For XG, that scale presented a practical challenge: reproducing the story across 70 metres of printed fabric for Tewkesbury Abbey.

Created for From Conquest to Kingdom, the full-scale reproduction forms part of the Abbey’s exhibition and Norman Heritage Trail, giving visitors the chance to follow the story of the Norman Conquest within the Abbey itself.

A historic story, a practical print solution
XG produced the reproduction as a series of panels on blockout display fabric, together spanning the full 70 metres.

At this scale, the finishing matters as much as the print. Each panel featured continuous eyelet webbing to provide fixing points along its length, with a pole pocket at the bottom to help keep it in position.

The finished display gives visitors room to follow the story, explore the detail and appreciate the scale of one of history’s most recognisable works.

See the full-scale reproduction at Tewkesbury Abbey as part of From Conquest to Kingdom, running until 11 July 2027.

Threads of the Leger | Community Artwork on a Grand Scale
Two banners. Each covering 100 square meters. A shared celebration of 250 years of the St Leger.

At the heart of Threads of the Leger were shared workshops bringing together local schoolchildren and care home residents.

Together, they contributed drawings, patterns and ideas inspired by the racecourse, its history and the Doncaster communities around it.

Their ideas and artwork became two large-scale banners celebrating 250 years of the St Leger.

XG’s role was to take that artwork from workshop to racecourse, producing two large-format fabric banners that could be appreciated from a distance and explored in detail up close.

Printed onto lightweight flag fabric, each banner was finished with header tape and grab handles to help the team deploy and position it on site.

Installed just beyond the track, the finished banners gave local creativity a prominent place in the anniversary celebrations, with the participants’ contributions forming part of a much bigger picture.

Artwork issues often start with the bleed setup.

In large-format graphics, bleed is rarely as simple as adding 3mm around the edge.

Different materials, finishing methods and installation requirements all influence how much bleed is needed and how it should be applied. Using standard commercial print assumptions can lead to artwork queries, production delays and finished graphics that do not meet the intended specification.

Our latest article explains what bleed is, why production bleed and fitting bleed are not the same, how different products require different bleed allowances, and the common artwork mistakes that can cause problems before printing even begins.

For anyone preparing artwork for exhibitions, signage, retail displays or event graphics, this article is a useful guide.

Learn why bleed is essential in large-format print, how production bleed, fitting bleed, and overhang bleed differ, and how to supply clean artwork for print.

New equipment. Same commitment to quality.

XG has completed the installation of two new flatbed cutters, replacing existing machines as part of our ongoing investment in production.

Flatbed cutting is a key stage in our in-house finishing process, helping ensure graphics are cut accurately, fit correctly and meet the standards our customers expect.

It may be one of the less visible parts of production, but it plays an important role in the final quality, fit and presentation of printed graphics, including display graphics, boards, panels, floor graphics and shaped work.

By continuing to invest in our production capability, we are maintaining the quality, consistency and reliability that support every project we produce.

With both new machines now in place, this investment further strengthens our in-house finishing operation and supports continued control across the work we produce.
